  1. #Trump must release millions in #grants meant to address the shortage of #MentalHealth workers in #schools, a federal judge ruled.

    #Congress funded the program after the 2022 #Uvalde #SchoolShooting. The grants were intended to help schools hire more #counselors, #psychologists & #SocialWorkers, & focus on rural & underserved areas. But Trump’s admin opposed #diversity considerations used to award the grants & told recipients they wouldn’t continue past Dec 2025.

  3. I’ll start:

    The resources at our local elementary school have been such wonderful, kind, supportive people. My family has made heavy use of the in-school #counselors and they have helped us navigate the #ADHD my genes have passed on.

    The #teachers have been saints. They love my kids and want them to succeed. They see the special in each of them and I feel like my kids are known.

    Bless our #publicSchool

  4. I have shutdown Lemmy instance lem.clinicians-exchange.org

    This instance proved uniquely unpopular despite lots of marketing. I'll get around to removing the links to it in bot posts and emails and Mastodon graphics eventually.

    It might have made sense to keep it open if Lemmy was going to offer private forums for vetted members anytime in the near future (therapists like privacy in discussions) but this objective is barely on the developer's radars.

    I am definitely keeping mastodon.clinicians-exchange.o open and would encourage you to join that site if you are in need of a Mastodon instance and work at all broadly speaking in the field of mental health.

    Thanks,
    Michael

    A 3-year-old short video, but a good one from SciShow -- a
    consumer-oriented YouTube science show which is generally well-done.

    Goes into:
    -- ADHD and sleep disorders overlaps
    -- Chicken and the egg problem -- which comes first
    -- Altered Circadian Rhythm & ADHD correlation
    -- Sleep Onset Insomnia:  Is treating it a way to improve ADHD symptoms
    (pretty much YES, although more research would be good)

    Lots of research, although mostly children's studies.  Should many
    people with ADHD be taking melatonin?

    NYU Information for Practice puts out 400-500 good quality health-related research posts per week but its too much for many people, so that bot is limited to just subscribers. You can subscribe at @PsychResearchBot

  6. #Texas lawmakers want untrained chaplains in #publicschools
    youtube.com/watch?v=1TsdMwdQYa
    Texas #Republicans want to allow public #schools to replace trained #counselors and #socialworkers with unlicensed #Christian #chaplains.
    This is a mental health disaster in the making.

  7.
